Trujillio, Peru


The beach in Trujillio

After Machu Pichu, we took an airplane and then a bus to Trujillio. A city on the norther coast of Peru... and even though after Machu Pichu, I didn´t think there could be another set of ruins that could impress me as much... I was once again wronged when I saw the HUGE ruins of the Chimu Civilization. This ancient city is propably the biggest set of ruins I´ve ever seen. Even larger than Machu Pichu, it houses 9 enormous temples. Of course comparing it to Machu Pichu would be pointless, simply becuase both cities are so much different. One is made of rock and sits ontop of a mountain; and the other is made of sand, and lies along the Pacific coast. However, you must see both if you ever travel to Peru.
